I attended a Missionary school from Elementary to High School. After high school I was admitted to ATC/ABU Kano from 1967-1970. In 1971 after the completion of my course of studies, I was admitted to Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) Zaria. I graduated three years later with a Second-Upper class with honors degree in 1974.
